Pushed the button after much umming and ahhing. Missed the boat on AUO, as they went out of stock while I was waiting on my main email addy getting unblocked (too many stoopid people on my ISP have let their machines become spam zombies, so it's not uncommon to get labelled a spammer) but killers did come in stock as a consolation proze. Have actually upgraded to 16 gig RAM (2 * 8 gig sticks) following broad hints there will be a chunk of HD video editing coming my way
